Why did Moon Moon really never get excited by its predecessors?

The rise of the devil, the aggressive wild beasts, or many other gruesome images, is the cause of the Moon being "eaten" and shedding wet blood in the sky.

Today when science advances, we know well that it is an astronomical phenomenon and its level of occurrence is quite frequent. But hundreds of years ago, the red shift of the Moon in the sky was really a sign of unhappiness. That is the reason that Moonlight has never been a waiting event and is observed with the excitement of past predecessors.

Forest bunkers eat Moon meat

Native Americans of South America see eclipses that are extremely frightened. The Incas claimed that the most ferocious bees in the green forest attacked and tore the Moon into pieces to eat meat, causing the Moon to be bloody wounded.

The beasts who dare to attack the whole Moon, it is reasonable to return to the earth to grab and eat people. In order to prevent unwholesome things, the kingdom's strongest people will gather and chatter sword dance, creating a loud sound to scare away evil beasts. They even harass dogs so they bark during the lunar eclipse.

The evil spirit foretold the Emperor

The ancient Mesopotamian civilization said that what happened in heaven was the future that foretold things happening on earth. When they saw the Moon turning red, they knew that the heavens were being invaded by rebels, causing blood to stain the palace, and this would surely happen to them in the near future.

In order to make sure that his Emperor was not murdered, they found a person who had the same appearance as the King and sent him to the throne for a short time to receive the death for the king. When the lunar eclipse passes, the replacement man will be sacrificed to the god and executed later.

Pray for the health of the Moon

People in the native Hupa tribe living in northern California today have a more happy ending story for the Moon. The Hupas believe that the Moon God has 20 wives and many pets, they are all wild beasts in the forest like lions and poisonous snakes.

When the Moon god does not feed them, they become aggressive and attack causing the Moon to bleed profusely. The wives find it to replace the husband for the full-fledged animals and take care of the good husband so he can quickly regain his beauty.

Worried about the health of the Moon God, the Hupa people who saw the Red Moon would sing and dance together, they thought that the Moon was in distress, so they had to keep the song and created the wine. Happy atmosphere for heaven, just pray for the Moon to heal wounds.

The Sun and Moon fight

The ancient Batammaliba people lived in Togo and present-day Benin, in the West African region with folk tales, that the Sun and Moon fight when the eclipse occurs to scramble for time to appear in the sky. They fought so hard they bleed and the villagers had to gather to pray for them to stop.

The rituals are celebrated by the village patriarch, all the villagers must be present and create a huge crowd of people to pray for peace. In just a short time after that, the Moon will return to its normal color, the village chief said that nature has harmonized, everyone will love each other and the next crop will be reaped.

occurs when the Earth is between the Sun and the Moon, and all three bodies lie in line. At this time the Earth will cover the light from the Sun to the Moon, but the rays with red-orange light with long wavelengths pass through the Earth's atmosphere and shine onto the Moon, causing the Moon to turn into Red.

When observing the lunar eclipse, you can see directly with the naked eye because the light of the Moon is mild and does not harm the eyes as when observing the Sun at the occurrence of an eclipse. You can use the telescope to get a close-up view of the Moon's surface the moment it turns orange.
